I would say with 246k miles it won't hurt to get it cleaned up, inspected and rebuilt (valve job).Mtech1 v8 build thread - https://www.r3vlimited.com/board/sho...d.php?t=413205

As worn as the tips of the valves on my car are (275,000, but has been very bad for 30,000+) I would say careful inspection, then decide.
If time is a crunch, find a good used head and have that inspected/rebuilt/melted for scrap/put on just as it is because it is fine.
GL!
